Written by Lisa Stanley on 8th Apr 2025

Doing anything for the first time can be daunting – whether it’s your first day at school, your first solo drive, or an adrenaline-fuelled activity like zip-lining, scuba diving, or bungee jumping.

While these physical challenges may set hearts racing, some of us feel the same level of anxiety when it comes to investing for the first time – handing over our hard-earned savings. But, as with other big decisions in life, the key to overcoming fear is preparation and knowledge.

Our new Good Guide to First-Time Investing, is here to help you navigate the many decisions you’ll need to make before taking the plunge into investing.

We’ll help you assess your comfort with risk—are you more of a hill walker or a kamikaze base jumper? We’ll also explore your personal values and whether you want your investments to align with them, as well as other key considerations like your financial goals and investment time horizon.

Our aim is to equip you with the knowledge to confidently choose the right investment options for you. We’ll introduce you to different types of investment vehicles and prepare you to make that all-important first investment.

And because we’re Good With Money, we want to help you DO good with your money as well as BE good with it. That’s why this guide focuses on sustainable investing. We’ll walk you through some trusted options, and introduce you to the new ‘Sustainability labels’ from the Financial Conduct Authority so you can make informed choices.
